    Not trying to sell anything, but I thought I would share for anyone who was on the fence about this and loves coffee like I do.

    After school I moved away to Ohio. I miss Living in Cincinnati for the Starbucks on every corner, but hated everything else about the city. Now, I'm back home in Indiana, and I live in a relatively rural area, and its hard to get a good cup of coffee without driving 50 minutes or more.
    Three weeks ago I decided to pull the trigger and buy a Keurig K-Cup Machine.
    I am so hopped up on caffeine right now its ridiculous.

    So far I have tried:
    Starbucks French Roast - Way Too Dark/Strong for my taste (I grew up on Folgers Colombian Supreme)
    Starbucks Breakfast Blend - Good. Tastes just like the barista made it.
    Barista Prima Coffeehouse® House Blend - Good.
    The Original Donut Shop™ Extra Bold Coffee - Strong, but Good
    Celestial Seasonings Unsweetened Iced Tea - Great!
    Celestial Seasonings Sweet Lemon Perfect Iced Tea AKA An Arnold Palmer - The wife bought it. I've never been/still not a fan.

    I also purchased the charcoal water filter kit because the water here tastes bad. I also got the "My K-Cup" to finish off a bag of coffee beans I have left over from the old coffee machine.

    So far I'm very pleased with the results.

    I created a Video Demo for friends on another forum who wanted to see it in action.

    We love ours as well, we just use the my Kcup thing, and it cuts back on wasted coffee as I have to really be sleepy to want coffee.

    I've owned a Keurig platinum brewer for nearly three years now, they're outstanding little machines. I should mention that the first one died and was warrantied, but I brew one cup per morning to wake me up enough to drive to Starbucks on my way in to work.

    my mom and sister both have one of these and they love it. I know one of their faves is some 'doughnut shop' coffee, or something like that.

    Im not much of a coffee person, but it will make a mean cup of hot chocolate! ;)

    love my k-cups, great little machine on my second one though, doesn't seem to last as long as a $100+ coffee maker should

    The only thing is that the coffee may be good, but you don't get a sweet young thang that says, "The usual?" and "Here you go, hun."
    (I donn't get that, I'm just warning you Starbucks addicts what you'll be giving up)
